They are open source and decentralized and indeed there are already a few forks.

Yup that's why it seems great though i haven't heard of forks. I think i'll wait a little more till i switch to it, just to see if it gets itself in hot water. It's too early to tell

If you use your email, it's anonymous but you have to use your email which is almost never anonymous and has your phone number. Also you have to "Create an app-specific password" that delta chat will use and gain full access to your email account, which is way worse than signal or any other application. That's a really stupid idea.

Finessing the terms doesn't fix it.

Good to know, thank you for the link

Wasting other people's time.

If you want to use an LLM that's fine, but if you're cutting and pasting it into a discussion you should warn other people that it's not human generated.

And most of it isn't wrong, it's just a giant wall of text that's largely irrelevant to the conversation.

PGP is a very curious choice. A quick Google search says a downside of this is that it does not provide "forward secrecy". From the Wikipedia page on forward secrecy, it prevents things like the following.

If an adversary can steal (or obtain through a court order) this static (long term) signing key, the adversary can masquerade as the server to the client and as the client to the server and implement a classic man-in-the-middle attack.

If you struggle making more than one email address try starting somewhere basic.

Precise language is important if you want to understand and communicate truth. It helps a lot to understand the difference between privacy and anonimity there is a scenario where a person doesn't care that an adversary knows their id, but does care about the content of their messages. In which case, differentiating tools that provide that particular service requires language to discuss it.

Did anyone tell the WhatsApp users?

[email protected]

He clearly does care about the phone number.

If you struggle making a new email address, this is not for you.

Unregistered users can't chat, so it needs a number, like OP said.

It's not anonymous.

During onboarding of the app you only choose a name and get a random email address

How can we tell them if we aren't in Whatsapp?

[email protected]

Fragment it's the first time I hear about Delta chat

Signal is private in that other people can't intercept your messages, including signal. The signal app is open-source so you can be relatively certain it's not tracking your decrypted messages, unlike closed-source apps like WhatsApp or Facebook Messenger or any other private social media.

Signal is not anonymous from an account standpoint, because you need a phone number to sign up, even if you can choose not to display it in your account.
